I'm sure they/we didn't mean to ignore you. There are tons of requests all the time for new products and samples, and sometimes (unfortunately) one slips through the cracks. <br />You have to try to the new Vanilla Gingerbread Holiday GU. It's yummy! Also brand new- Pineapple Roctane (and its caffeine free!)<br />So, what do you say? Can we hug it out?<br /><br />Give me a shout anytime. I'd LOVE to send you GU galore. :)<br />Cheers, <br />Devon<br />devon (at) outsidepr (dot) comDevonhttp://www.outsidepr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-43549965702332959472009-10-13T13:56:19.246-04:002009-10-13T13:56:19.246-04:00It looks like everyone else is giving you some fan...It looks like everyone else is giving you some fantastic advice. Since you are boycotting Gu maybe you could try another brand or a bar or banana to carry with you? I've seen people eat those. I am a big fan of Gu though too so I am not sure if I could go without. You are doing awesome with your training schedule - look at you go.<br /><br />Yeah for making the Pumpking Muffins - glad you liked them. I didn't use almond butter though....did you replace the pumpkin butter part? Your loaf looks fantastic :)<br /><br />Good luck with deciding on your training - go with what you feel, but, give your body a rest when it needs it. You don't want to injure yourself after all your hard work.Danica's Dailyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17847398912427506505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-85779943385710563402009-10-13T11:55:08.651-04:002009-10-13T11:55:08.651-04:00i bought barley yesterday. i'll get quinoa ne...i bought barley yesterday. i'll get quinoa next!!!Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13062114889126850617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-38961891708597208572009-10-13T09:52:29.006-04:002009-10-13T09:52:29.006-04:00If you really just started training a few weeks ag...If you really just started training a few weeks ago, it does sound a little early for a rest week. How far are you taking the miles though for this training? 20? 22?<br /><br />I'm using the clif bloks this year. Margarita flavor cause they have 3x the sodium and I only drink water while I run.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07202296893022308340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-42532265141060720502009-10-13T09:43:53.223-04:002009-10-13T09:43:53.223-04:00So glad you have discovered the awesomeness of Rec...So glad you have discovered the awesomeness of Recovery Socks.

However, you have done marathons before, so if this has worked in the past than go for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-19897296155678770942009-10-12T23:18:08.226-04:002009-10-12T23:18:08.226-04:00I'm not sure if i would do back to back 20 mil...I'm not sure if i would do back to back 20 milers either... my training plan with hal had me do 20-12-20... that might work better- but i'm no expert either! :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11825097650104995097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-12562959713256520492009-10-12T21:38:33.968-04:002009-10-12T21:38:33.968-04:00Are you going to do the two 20-milers back to back...Are you going to do the two 20-milers back to back? That seems like a lot to me. But I am no expert :-). I mean it does make sense how they lined it up since you're on the 4th week of building up (the rules I've always seen is to drop back every 4).Billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06591203274310639324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-53799710797211201402009-10-12T20:06:18.085-04:002009-10-12T20:06:18.085-04:00I know what you mean about companies not respondin...I know what you mean about companies not responding and then you want to boycott them! I've been treated the same way by many companies, but others are soooo generous. I just got a $140 umbrella stroller AND I get to give one away, but a company who has a $30 item won't even give me the time of day!<br /><br />You're right, I don't understand why they wouldn't respond to your request!<br /><br />I just bought some of these endurance cubes:http://www.quixtar.com/products/product.aspx?itemno=109168&ctg=617<br /><br />And they should be in a few days. This will be my first time using fuel as I am training for a half-marathon. I would like to mail you a few out of my box to try out as soon as I get them if you are interested. I am a distributor of these products.Charihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016553715852916194noreply@blogger.com
